Mantra meditation is the best meditation for beginners. For beginners it is very difficult to stay calm and focus during meditation. There are many Mantra that can be used during meditation. Mantra is the phrase of words or complete sentence that is proven to produce specific vibrant of positive wave. Mantra Meditation has dual benefits. One it will help to meditate for beginners and second it will produce good amount of Aura in our body. Begin with basic meditation steps and start chanting mantra. You can pick any mantra if you already know few mantras or choose from Mantras for Meditation. In Mantra for Meditation I have only describe few mantras and there are thousands of mantras. I suggest you to know detail about mantra that you are going to chant.

Many of you might have one question that how many times you need to chant mantra during meditation. Well the more you chant mantra during meditation you start developing more aura in your body.

Two steps to mediate for beginners are one be physically & mentally prepare and second to follow any simple technique of breathing exercise.

Step 1: Prepare Physically and Mentally for Meditation

Be mentally prepared that you are going to do meditation for next few minutes. For physical preparation, wear comfortable lose clothes, select silence environment and take any easy posture where you can standstill for 10-15 minutes of time. I prefer to meditate in the early morning where I get fresh air and natural sounds of birds, trees, leaves, animals, river, stream and so on. Lotus posture is regarded as the best posture for meditation from ancient time. 

Step 2: Simple Technique of Breathing Exercise for Meditation

Breathing exercise is to control your breathing i.e. inhale and exhale of breathing. During meditation we mostly choose only one simple technique of breathing. Inhale and exhale our breathing in slow, longer and deeper breathing.
